Name: Saus Dill Krim dengan Salmon atau Trout
Total time: 15 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Indonesian
Ingredients: 3/4 cup sour cream ((1)); 2 tsp Dijon or hot English mustard ((2)); 1/2 tsp garlic powder or 1 small garlic clove (, minced); 2 1/2 tbsp fresh dill (, finely chopped); 1 tsp lemon zest; 1 - 2 tbsp lemon juice; 2 tbsp milk ((or olive oil, for richness)); 1/4 - 1/2 tsp salt; 1/2 tsp white sugar; 1/2 - 1 tbsp oil; 4 salmon or trout fillets ((125g / 4oz each)); Salt and pepper

A fantastic quick meal! Dill Sauce is refreshing, rather than heavy as many "creamy" sauces can be, because it is made with sour cream. The slight acidity is a great pairing with salmon or trout which are quite rich and oily. I made this with trout.

1/2 tsp white sugar
1/2 - 1 tbsp oil
4 salmon or trout fillets ((125g / 4oz each))

Steps

Mix the Dill Sauce ingredients together (Mix well to loosen the sour cream). Adjust consistency with milk and tartness with lemon juice. Set aside for 10 minutes if you can - if using fresh garlic, set aside for 20 min.
Pat fish dry with paper towel. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in skillet over medium high heat. Place fish in skillet skin side down. Cook for 2 minutes, then flip and cook the other side for 1 1/2 minutes.
Remove from skillet onto serving plates. Serve with Dill Sauce on the side, garnished with fresh dill and lemon wedges if desired.
